Role & Responsibilities
We’re looking for a skilled Welder with experience working to tight tolerances on thin gauge Aluminium. You’ll join a small, high-performing welding cell, producing a wide variety of parts—mainly lightweight aluminium fabrications, using AC TIG (DTAW) and MIG (GMAW) processes. Some stainless and mild steel may also be involved.
- Fabrication is part of the role, but focused more on precision welding than heavy structural work
- Typical material thicknesses: 1.5mm – 5mm, mostly plate and light tube
- Interpret technical drawings and inspect your own work
- Work to tight deadlines with high levels of accuracy
- Contribute to continuous improvement (5S principles: Sort, Shine, Standardise, Sustain, etc.)
- Maintain your own equipment and workspace
- 2+ years of welding experience on thin gauge aluminium
- Confident using AC/DC TIG and MIG welding on light metals
- Able to work independently or as part of a team
- Good understanding of quality control and production workflow
- Fabrication skills a bonus, but not essential
- Previous welding codings or qualifications beneficial
Candidates from aerospace, electronics enclosures, motorsport, or precision sheet metal environments will feel at home here.
Benefits
- £16 – £18 per hour
- 20 days holiday + bank holidays
- 5% matched pension
- Discretionary bonus & sick pay
